Star Control 2 is still one of the best stories and universes/settings ever.



Would you mind articulating the elements that make this particular story and setting uniquely good?


> Are you kidding? Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles...

wait, wait, no that's something else. hang on.

> Are you kidding? Epic space battles, mystery, exploration, enslavement, hegemony, monsters, ancient doctrinal conflict, escapes, revolution...


“Hold! What you are doing to us is wrong! Why do you do this thing?”


And Frungy! The game of kings!

Frungy!


Why it's an extraordinary adventure with an interface of magic, stunning high-resolution, 3D landscapes, sophisticated score and musical effects. Not to mention the detailed animation and special effects, elegant point 'n' click control of characters, objects, and magic spells.


Are you a bot? Like... 3D landscapes and magic spells, what?
